Abstract

Based on a new and consistent formulation of scaled particle theory for a fluid confined in random porous media, a series of new approximations are proposed and one of them gives equations of state with excellent accuracy for a hard sphere fluid adsorbed in a hard sphere or an overlapping hard sphere matrix. Although the initial motivation was to remedy a flaw in a previous formulation of the scaled particle theory for a confined fluid, the new formulation is not a trivial and straightforward correction of the previous one. A few conceptual and significant modifications have to be introduced for developing the present formulation.
